Trivia excess

[edit]

Removed the trivia excess that didn't pertain to this particular production.

If you can work something into the main piece, it would be much more relevant to the article.

Filming locations?

[edit]

I've just deleted a claim that the track-level view of the train approaching the dead-end terminus was shot at Montreal's Windsor station. This is because I've previously seen it claimed that the same shot was taken at the Chicago & Northwestern's station in Chicago. (Of course the passenger concourse in the same scene is Toronto Union.)

As I recall, the person making the Chicago claim also stated that the freight yards in the scene where the train is about to become a runaway are on the C&NW; if so, this would mean that filming was not exclusively on CPR locations either. The IMDB accepts the station location as Chicago, but that's not conclusive since they also depend on user-contributed information.

Anyone got a solid source on this? 207.176.159.90 01:48, 16 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]

...they could have used stock footage. the one quick scene of the wheels going by shows them painted silver. the actual wheels on the cars used were painted black.

Fair use rationale for Image:Silver Streak DVD cover.jpg

[edit]

Image:Silver Streak DVD cover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 11:28, 6 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
